multi touch
11 March 2016 14:16
Hy i'm trying to fugure out how to use multi touch in a project. And i am wondering if i could use it in Blend4web?
I for example am wondering if i could check if i'm touching two objects at the same time to trigger one animation.
Thank's in advance!

Hi,
Currently, we don't have special methods for precise multi touch processing, so you need to use builtin browser touch events. There is a changedTouches feld in the touch event. It can be used in combination with the pick_object method in the same way as if it was one touch. But go easy on the pick_object, because it is a pretty costly call.

Question. When i use the switchselect in the node tree : is it using pick_object under the hood?

Hello!
So if i understand well. When i need to map a large area i could just check the X and Y of the mouse click and launch a function that would be more efficient than calling pick_object.
In the case for example where i have two navigation objects. If I use viewport alignement they would always be at the same place. so if i determine a max and min X and Y i could simplify my app by checking if i click in a zone on the screen rather than calling pick_object?
Of course it would need a bit of math to recalculate the desired zone according to the viewport size for every device or every time the viewport size changes.
